We could see into that Holiday Inn through its plate glass windows and observe cops walking around its lobby with billy clubs, keeping a watchful eye on us.

“There was a handful of cops on the other side with billy clubs. And when they came over that fence, they met them with a couple whacks to the head and dragged them off.”

Then, police officers attacked protesters with billy clubs, dragging them out of Grant Park in a show of bloody force.

“They were praying when the billy clubs struck.”

Beyond billy clubs, laws banning butterfly knives, switchblades and other edged weapons are also being challenged.
